The clock is ticking closer to a government shutdown. Yet Trump canceled today’s meeting to negotiate. Democrats are fighting to make sure you keep your health care and lower costs. Republicans don’t care. It’s that simple.
If Trump’s ICE can kidnap and disappear immigrants with legal status and visas, then they can do the same to U.S. citizens. ALL of our rights are under attack. We must stand up and fight back against these cruel and unconstitutional immigration policies.
Trump and Republicans’ rescissions package stripped $1.1 billion in funding from public media — including our very own Cascade PBS. Local media is critical to keeping communities informed. I’m fighting to get this funding reinstated. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...
NEW: I’m calling for a Government Accountability Office investigation into ICE’s billion-dollar detention center contracts with private corporations. Trump’s admin is funneling cash to shady private prison corporations — including GOP donors. The American people deserve answers.
Mass deportations don’t open up more jobs for U.S.-born workers — they cause American workers to lose jobs, wages to go down, and our economy to slow. Watch Robert Lynch, an economics professor at Washington College, discuss how immigrants are good for the American economy.
When you walk down the grocery aisle, it might look like you have endless choices — but in reality, you’re choosing between products that are all owned by just a few mega-corporations. This corporate consolidation and lack of competition means higher costs for working families.
Under Trump and Republicans’ government funding plan, insurance premiums will skyrocket across the country. Republicans must come to the table and negotiate a plan that helps to keep millions from losing their health coverage and lowers costs for the American people.
Haley Robson, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse, on how she feels when Trump calls the Epstein Files a hoax: “I’m enraged for different reasons.” Listen to our full conversation on the most recent episode of The Power You Have, available anywhere you get your podcasts!
We have just one week left until a Republican government shutdown. Democrats are ready to pass a bill that keeps millions of Americans from getting kicked off their health care. Trump and Republicans won’t even come to the table to negotiate.
ICE agents grabbed a 5-year-old girl outside of her home and held her, screaming, to coerce her father, who has been in the US for 22 years, to be detained. This is cruel, disgusting, and must end. Trump is tearing families apart. www.nbcboston.com/news/local/i...
Donald Trump and Republicans are going after free speech and the First Amendment — one of the most fundamental rights we have as Americans. This is authoritarianism, and we must fight it at every turn. Free speech is not up for debate.
One expert called it: “The saddest display of a lack of evidence, rumors, recycling old myths, lousy advice, outright lies, and dangerous advice I have ever witnessed by anyone in authority in the world claiming to know anything about science.” www.reuters.com/business/hea...
I was just notified of ANOTHER death in ICE custody — the 16th since Trump took office. The second death TODAY. This is absolutely unacceptable.
Congress was just notified of the 15th death in ICE custody since Trump took office. This is the direct result of this administration expanding the use of private, for-profit prisons that put their bottom line over people’s health and safety.
BREAKING: Trump just backed out of his meeting on government funding with Democratic leadership. The government shuts down in 7 days, but Trump and Republicans are refusing to even come to the table to prevent millions from losing health care. If there is a shutdown, it will be on the GOP.
Congress was just notified of the 15th death in ICE custody since Trump took office. This is the direct result of this administration expanding the use of private, for-profit prisons that put their bottom line over people’s health and safety.
